Team Obama Readies Rhetoric for 2012

Posted on Jul 13, 2010

It’s a good thing there’s still time yet before the Obama administration really has to kick into high spin mode for Campaign ’12, because White House spokesman Robert Gibbs’ early attempt at facing down the competition needs some serious work. What is this, Gibbs, “Obama: He’s Not Bush”? Let’s try that again. —KA

USA Today:

White House spokesman Robert Gibbs didn’t talk about Sarah Palin specifically yesterday, but he did address any Republican who is thinking about challenging President Obama in 2012.

[...] “You’re going to get an opportunity to think about whether we’re going to go back to what we came from or that we’re going to go forward,” Gibbs said. “And that’s a debate I think the President and many here are anxious to have.”
